Robotteja joka lähtöön

Kuriirirobotit sairaaloissa: TUG, RoboCart ja HelpMate. Koneet ovat niin kohteliaita, että väistävät lattialle heitettyjä papereitakin.

They use wireless radios to call elevators or open automatic doors. Their "brains" are packed with detailed maps of hospitals and computer programs to help them keep track of where they are, where they're going and the right time to jump on an elevator.

They're also polite. The TUG asks people to "please stand aside," when it gets onto an elevator and says "thank you" after it makes a delivery. The HelpMate asks people, "please examine my contents," when it makes a delivery.


Vartijarobotit sotilastukikohdissa: MDARS ja Matilda. Iso robottitankki synnyttää pienen robottitankin, oi kun sööttiä!

"If you shoot the robot we don't care. We know you're there, you're hostile, and we can keep our forces in reserve to move tactically against the enemy. The robots will save our troops' lives," he said.
